Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole has joined French club Lille on loan for the remainder of the season. The 29-year-old travelled to France on Tuesday to undergo a medical and, despite a late bid by Aston Villa, has opted to join the Ligue 1 side. England international Cole moved to Anfield in July 2010 on a four-year deal from Chelsea but made only 11 league starts for the Reds. He has not featured at all for Kenny Dalglish's side this season.From BBC
